Dope Online Find: Gourmet Kicks

Hey Stylistos,

So... my boyfriend gave me the skinny on some cool kicks he came across in Atrium recently.

As soon as I got word I hit the web researching these "cool" kicks.

These "cool" kicks are called Gourmet.

Gourmet is a brand that defies categorization. The brand influences are Italian and Italian-American culture.

I always encourage fellas to style outside the box. Nikes and Adidas are not the only kicks out there. VENTURE out Fellas!!!

Gourmet kicks have a strong resemblance to Keds, but with a fashion forward/urban touch.

Me Likey.

Check out my favs.

Until next time

Dope Trend: Gold Watch

Hey Stylistas,

Everywhere I go I always get at least on person asking me where I get my Gold watch. The Gold watch is a definite Must Have.

Check out my top 5 Gold Watches

Style tip: The Gold watch adds a little flavor to your wrist. It's a great add to any fit.

Swatch

I love my Swatch. My boyfriend gave it to me as a "just because" gift and I LOVE it.

Michele

If you can afford the beautiful Michele watches, I encourage you invest in one. Michele makes the best quality watches. It's so femine and girlie. Love it!

Fossil

The Fossil watch is less expensive and great quality.

Retro Casio

I HEART this watch. Throw this on with a retro inspired fit.

Micheal Kors

I love the Micheal Kors gold watches. The face is big, but still girlie for Her.

The Gold watch is a watch you should definitely have in your wardrobe. The best thing about the gold watches, it goes with everything.

Until next time

same place tomorrow

Style Tweet: June Ambrose

Hey stylish people,

Introducing yet another section of Search.Style.Snap, Style Tweet.

This section is for me to share the breaking fashion worthy news as I receive it on twitter. I follow many fashion twitts and sometimes they spill major fashion tweets.

Yesterday June Ambrose (stylist to the stars) tweeted some great news. Some may not agree, but as a stylista you would be proud.

Ambrose is working with the lovely Christina Milian. Please do not take this as a diss to CM, because this blog is not for that, however homegirl needs a little help in the style department. She use to look very cute, now she is parading with her boo The Dream looking a mess.

Let's see how June works her magic... Stay Tuned!

Today, June also revealed some great style news....

These are Ambrose's twitpics.

For the 10th Anniversary commercial Jigga Man got Hit Film maker Spike Lee to direct and dope stylist June to style the joint... Dopeness, can't wait to see it!!!

Until Next Time

DOPE ONLINE STORE: VINTAGE FIX

Hey Stylistas,

I know it's been a minute...
Hope everyone is well and looking their fashion best these days, enjoy these last days of summer... the weather is finally getting warmer...
With that said let's go...

As I evolve stylisticly (yes I made that word up) I tend to dig certain pieces I never use to love before.
Though a describe my style as Urban Chic, I'm indulging in the vintage world and I'm liking it. I can't see myself totally turning my fashion life over to Vintage, however I think some pieces are dope.

I love going to vintage shops to get cool belts, sunglasses, jewelry, and one of a kind dresses. Sometimes I will browse just to get inspired.

I'm currently looking for a mink shrug- this is my next vintage purchase. I came across a great one at the top of the Summer, I didn't purchase it because I felt foolish. I was sweating in my poom poom shorts and I was about to purchase a mink wrap???? But I can tell you now... I'm sooo regretting that fashion mistake!!! smh!

I want to introduce you to this dope vintage online shop, Nasty Gal.
I've purchased a couple of pieces from the online store and I love them.

Nasty Gal offers some of the best hand picked vintage digs, as well as unique designer pieces.

I was shopping the site for potential Birthday Dress, and I think I found it!!!! :)

Nasty Gal posted there new collection, check out some of my fav pieces from the collection.

Side Bar: The accessories are poppin'. I love that Gold Zipper Bangle
